What if government weren't ever actually intended to be its (2A's) interpreter, its (government's) own arbiter, to decide the limits of its own authority, let alone with regard to an expressly acknowledged uninfringeable natural right?

Yes, that's the position taken by your servants in the NH Dept of Safety. And that defiantly head-in-the-sand attitude was really the only articulable objection to the subject of HB150, "establishing a study committee on the legalization of marijuana," when it was heard by the NH House Criminal Justice Committee, 1/20/2015. Should we study it? No, gathering more information is just too dangerous to risk. Seriously: 'we don't want to know, and you shouldn't know either, employer,' is the argument to which they're reduced. "LA-LA-LA! I CAN'T HEAR YOU...!!!"

Tough to say
On any given day
What you might find here

"The liberty of the press is not confined to newspapers and periodicals. It necessarily embraces pamphlets and leaflets. These indeed have been historic weapons in the defense of liberty, as the pamphlets of Thomas Paine and others in our own history abundantly attest.
The press in its historic connotation comprehends every sort of publication which affords a vehicle of information and opinion."
-U.S. Supreme Court-Lovell v. City of Griffin, 303 U.S. 444 (1938)
